I've managed to find OS X alternatives for most of my Windows software. I have a Windows version of Illustrator CS, but don't use it enough to justify the $$$ of the Mac version. Are there any programs that are similar to Illustrator and are freeware or modestly priced? If there is anything you recommend I would appreciate the tip!
Got a tip for us?

I recommend inkscape. it is free, although getting it to work on leopard can be difficult if it isn't a clean install.

I haven't used Illustrator, so I know I'm not the best qualified person to answer this question. But may I present to you one of the best in show programs at MacWorld this year, VectorDesigner:

It's also a part of the ongoing MacHeist if sales reach high enough numbers.

over in macheist, they have a bundle for vector desginer if they hit $300,000. Keep an eye on it because the bundle comes w/ some great software for a good deal. And if you're looking to buy vector designer, it could be a great buy if you wait.
